Dunns the war, our place was at a standstill so fur os any pin gress was concerned. In fnotj it received a decided set-back by the disastrous fire diring the Lattle, involving the loss of over fiftcon puhlio and private buildings. There being little or no demand lor mechanics and laborers, (hey sought cm ploy in nt else where. Now thenspcot of uiTairs is changed. Business lias revived, and a spirit of en terprise,, activity and bunynnoy prevails. Excellent wages and constant employment can now be obtained. Our people stand in 6rcat nced f such assistance, and all who will como will advance their own interests thereby. Carpenters, briult ma sons, and day-laborers, particularly wanted, but all others con find profitable employment. THE MACON TIKES. , The first number of this paper has made' its appearance, issued in Silicon, wo. n is edited by Col. C. II.

The first began, Anno Domini, Eighteen Hundred and Forty, in the good old lo-.vn of i'l.yette, Howard county, Missouri, and flostd in August, Eighteen Hundred and Sixty-one, in the city of Glasgow. Thesa twenty-one years and six months have muny pleasant associations connected with them, although we now look buck to them over the graves if thousands and thousands of our tellow-heitigs, through the dust and smoke of a horrid civil war, just clearing up bulore the sunshine of blessed peace. 1 hey were nappy years, vur pco plo sat .under their own vine and hi .1.- 'l.:-.i.l II, . rn (1 dpt.

His articles are of the very bct manufacture, and of beautiful de sign. Those purchasing of him need not fear having inferior articles palmed off up on the ra.

War civil war, devastating war has swept over our land, and its ravages and griefs aro too fresh in the minds of all to bear recapitulation. We leave that to his tory, and look to the future. We hove cast our lot in this place and among this people. Henceforth we know no oth'rr place, and become one of the peo ple. Fortunately, or unfortunately, per chance, we are not a stranger. We are on our native soil, and have spent the prime of our lite in the business we now resume,in a neighboring county, ''battling for the right, as God gave u? to see the tight, b- we shall continue to battle, and without further prelude, only osk to be judged by our acts which will or may be read of all men. A Good tiiinq in Monroe. Cn tho 17th ins t., a grand pic-nio was given in Monroe county, to live District Schools by its friends and patrons. It was the occa sion of the gathering together of some 900 or 1000 of the. good people of that county. Appropriate and harmonizing speeches were made and a sumptuous dinner disposed of. It was just such a meeting as reflected credit upon the good sense, magnanimity and Christianity of an enlightened people, end doubtless went far towards accomplish ing what we take to bo its real object : re storing good fellowship and kindly feeling, which the evil influences of the war had done so much to destroy, The Mercury says : "There were upon the ground, men fresh from the battle field, both ol the lederal an confederate service they mingled as oilier citizens, ond as though they never had been enemies their motto being: "Though ene mies in war, in peace we nro friends."

Having determined to resume publica tion of the ''Howard County Advertiser" on or about the 15th of July, 1SG5, 1 now proptue a regular issue thereof, and hope to merit a continuance .of the very liberal patronago tendered me in time past. To the State and National Administra tions in their legal and constitutional efforts to wipe out the last vestige of the rebellion, tho paper will yield a hearty and-cordial support. It will be the nrgin of no particular par ty or clique, but will labor sealously to up hold and maintain law Bnd order. In its columns may be found a summary of all important events, especiully those oi local character, thereby adopting itself to tho wants of the citizens of old Howard. During tho past few months my office has sustained severe injuries, so much so, that I am compelled to purchase new mate rial before commencing', this will le done in tho cutirso of a few days, when I will be prepared to execute all kinds of job work with neatness and dispatch. My subscription books haog been de stroyed, it is impossible for tie (Vmnke out a list of those indebted to me for suhsorip (ion, or to tell who paid in advance, t will fill out tho subscription of all those who have paid, if they will call or send in their names. There ore a large number of my old subscribers who are indebted lo me for subscription, and I respectfully request them to call and settle.

Getting the worst of tho light, they ran to their quarters, got their muskets, loaded them, fixed bayonets, and returned, using offensive Inngmipe.
